The Life of Dr. James Montgomery Boice (Robert Brady)
An Interview with the “Son of Hamas” Mossab Hasan Yousef
Hailed as a “gripping account of terror, betrayal, political intrigue, and unthinkable choices,” the “Son of Hamas” is the story of Mosab Yousef’s journey from being born the son of one of Hamas’s founders to becoming a Christian. Along the way, he served as an informant for Israel providing top-secret information for more than a [...]
Glenn Beck, Social Justice, and the Limits of Public Discourse
Fox News broadcaster Glenn Beck is famous for launching verbal grenades, and he did so again in recent days, calling upon church members to flee congregations that promote social justice. His comments incited an immediate controversy, where far more heat than light has yet been evident. As expected, there is more to this story than meets the eye — or may reach the ear via the public conversation. Keep Reading
NewsNote: “In God We Trust” and “Under God” = “No Theological Impact?”
The famous words “In God We Trust” and “under God” are safe . . . for now. The United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit ruled yesterday that those phrases from the national currency and the Pledge of Allegiance do not represent a governmental establishment of religion. Keep Reading
The Scandal of Gendercide — War on Baby Girls
The reality has been known for years now, though the Western media have generally resisted any direct coverage of the horror. That changed this week when The Economist published its stunning cover story — “Gendercide — What Happened to 100 Million Baby Girls?” Keep Reading
Women and Children First? A Tale of Two Ships
The scenario is well known, and the story still haunts the modern mind. The great ocean liner that was built as unsinkable struck an iceberg on April 14, 1912 and sank early the next morning, taking 1,517 of 2,223 lives on board. The RMS Titanic became a parable of modernity — of the limits of technology and the hubris of humanity. It is also a subject of enduring fascination because of the stories of those who lived and died, known to us because of the fame and fortune of so many on the Titanic. Keep Reading
Where Homeschooling is Outlawed — Asylum?
Uwe and Hannelore Romeike may have been considered outside the norms of civil society in their native Germany, but not in Morristown, Tennessee, where they and their five children now live. The Romeikes are homeschoolers who are determined to provide the education for their children, ranging in age from two to twelve. In Morristown, that is about as controversial as bass fishing, but in Germany it is a crime. Keep Reading
Is the Reformation Over?
The Rev. Eric Bergman thinks he has seen the future — and it isn’t Protestant. Known as Father Bergman now, Rev. Bergman became a Catholic priest after serving for years as an Episcopalian minister. His conversion to Roman Catholicism came, he relates, after he began to ponder the moral and theological issues related to contraception. Looking back, he dates the fall of the Anglican tradition to 1930, when the Church of England accepted birth control. “Out of that,” he says, “came a confusion about the roles of men and women, a theology of androgyny.” Keep Reading
NewsNote: Tiger Woods’ Buddhist Confession
Americans are accustomed to a certain kind of public confession, argues Susan Wise Bauer — and that means a confession that is shaped by the Christian faith. Indeed, in her seminal book, The Art of the Public Grovel, Bauer argues that Americans are actually accustomed to a public confession that she describes as Augustinian. Keep Reading
